Supporting Bereaved College Students - Self Study
Starting from $25.95
When emerging adults and college students experience loss, they may have difficulty in coping with that loss. The losses they face may be the first they’ve ever experienced, whether of a family member or a friend. These young adults are often far from their normal and natural support systems, and as they strive for independence and autonomy they may be reluctant to reach out for support. School-based counselors may have limited experience with grief. In this self-study, we focus on effective strategies for supporting college students and other emerging adults. Expert Panelists: Heather Servaty-Seib, PhD and Ken Doka, PhD, MDiv On Demand: to registered individuals for one year Length: 90 minutes CE Hours: 1.5 CEs available for a variety of boards. Board Approvals List CE Fees: CEs are included with registration. View Full Program Information Sheet

The Longest Loss: Alzheimer's Disease and Dementia
Starting from $20
When the diagnosis is Alzheimer’s disease or another dementia, grief doesn’t wait for death. Grieving can begin before a formal diagnosis or in the doctor’s office when patients and families receive confirmation of illness. Over a span of what may be a decade or more, multiple losses associated with dementia become a pervasive part of everyday life for millions of patients, families, and friends. After the death, survivors’ grief may be complicated by the nature of a lengthy disease process that has changed their relationship with the deceased. Through a combination of candid, compelling interviews and unscripted in-studio discussions, experts identify how medical and social service professionals can best improve care for patients, families, and themselves while coping with loss and grief associated with these progressive illnesses.
